GOOSE News

It's with the greatest of excitement and pleasure we share that following our Ofsted inspection on 27th August 2015 we have officially been graded Outstanding. In all areas.

Less than 10% of all early years settings in the UK hold the prestigious Outstanding award and as such we are absolutely delighted to see that all the hard work our dedicated team put into the care, learning and education of our babies every single day has been recognised by our most important governing body.

Some of the lovely comments in our report include:

"Children flourish during their time at nursery."

"The quality of teaching is exceptionally strong."

"Staff have an expert knowledge of children's abilities and next steps in their learning."

"Robust monitoring of assessment, both for individuals and groups of children, ensures children receive the relevant help and support they need if required."

"Children make very good progress because skilled staff have a secure knowledge and understanding of how young children learn and are passionate and committed to their role."

"Superb arrangements to care for children support their well-being."

"Exceptional support is offered for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities as staff work closely with multiagency workers and adults excel at meeting their specific needs."

"Inspirational leadership has resulted in a strong commitment to continuous improvement."

Following last Friday's Huntingdonshire Business Awards gala dinner, we are ecstatic to share with you that we have been announced as the winner of the Training and Development category within which we were nominated. We are beyond thrilled to receive the award, and the most genuine of congratulations goes to every single one of the team: they each throw themselves into our in-depth training and development programmes one hundred percent, and dedicate themselves to ensuring that the practice we have here at Mother Goose Corner provides for the very best possible outcomes for each of the children in our care. Well done us!

We are proud to announce we are finalists within the Huntingdonshire Business Awards! One of just three nominees within the Training and Development category, we will find out the overall winner on Friday 31st October. What a wonderful achievement: a hearty congratulations goes to all of our massively dedicated team in receiving this prestigious accolade.

On Friday 26th June the Nursery held a 'Going on a Bear Hunt' themed Toddle Waddle in aid of the Meningitis Trust, and we are proud to announce that we have since raised a staggering £870. Thank you to all children and adults for taking part and helping us collect a phenomenal sum in aid of a most worthwhile charity.

Exciting news! After 14 years without a website, we now have our very own dedicated online resource.
